As long as I know there is a good layer of protection on the paint I care a little less about all the dirt. Otherwise it would drive me crazy because I have a black car. I do remove bird poo asap.

I believe car paint needs some sort of water repellant hydrophobic spray or something so that when it gets dirty you can just spray it down with the hose and the dirt should theoretically fall off reducing the time of the second wash so that and future wash is really a maintenance wash until you see that the water is no longer repelling. I'm looking for something similar but its a mindfield out there...sooo many products.

Even the rain and the clouds couldn’t dull that finish. Top job as always. I’ve been through a lot of different shampoos and QDs from BH to GT, but I’m definitely circling back round to Yum on my next restock. Their stuff (for me) is so nice to use and I never had any issues with any product, unlike some of the other well regarded brands. Still, you’ve gotta try different things to find what works for you. Keep up the great transformations and high quality content!

As for Yum - I’ve used Wash outdoors in the UK summer, usually early morning and no warmer than 20c, and had no problems getting around the whole car before rinsing (medium/midsize car) and have never had issues with residual product. The QD, IMO, has been the easiest by a long way to use. Spray on, work in, flip the towel and buff off. It’s effortless. No streaking. You just need to be careful to keep hold of your towel as the surface becomes so slick your towel wants to slide right off. Water behaviour after QD, and the gloss, have both been excellent too.

Great video 👍🏻 I have to admit. She the first women I’ve seen doing auto care. And her attention to detail along with her techniques are superior to others I’ve seen. What works for me.. after the jams are cleaned and partially dry use some tire dressing or rubber conditioners on the door seals. These are the first thing the driver’s notice when you open the door. So when you dry the jams it’ll look brand new. Keep up the great work !!

Thanks for the heads up about the Yum products. I had watched this before but at the time maybe I was not in the market for more products but I have been impressed with the Yum wheel and tyre preparation products and methods and although you found a durability issue on the ceramic sealant there is no denying the gloss and beading and according to Yum it can be layered with a wax then on maintenance washes use the QD. I might try it but the products are in my opinion on the pricey side.

After my recent purchase of wheel Woolies brushes I decided to try them out on my Fiesta, I had 3 different sizes and thought that the big brush was great for the wheels and arches, the medium was used around the calipers, and the small one for the front grille because in previous washes I have found it hard to clean but the brushes really sped up the cleaning process!

Top job! I like the use of Citrus under the snow foam - I still do that in winter even though Bilt Hamber Touch-less snow foam is such an epic cleaner on its own. The trim dressing sounds interesting, I use Solution Finish on a family member's Mini Cooper (similar to this one) - lasts about 9-12 months. Gtechniq C4 lasts longer but the plastics need to be absolutely spotless using loads of IPA.

Another cracking watch.I was with you every step of the way as my JCW was that colour but with red accents. Angelwax Halo or Corona are good on the plastics but laterally mine were dressed with Gyeon Trim to good effect and I now use M & K Trim exclusively. Under the arches I used either Auto Finnese Dressle but now use Wet Coat on all plastic arches. My wheels were the Gloss black double spokes and were coated with M & K Armour as it sustains high temperature and repels water brilliantly. Auto Finnese Triple is my weapon of choice on door shuts etc but your trick of running water into the shuts is followed by myself and I thank you for that tip. When those Mini's are spotless they look amazing and I would never have sold mine for any other car than the i-Pace. I look forward to the next film.

Nice work, Minis do look great when all the plastics are freshly dressed. I don’t think anything went wrong with your YUM ceramic durability test I’ve seen similar myself and heard plenty of others say 6weeks is more accurate than 6months. Lovely product to use as all of their products I tried are to be fair but also a bit pricey and optimistic on the durability it seems.

It probs seems more like a hybrid quick detailer spray then with that level of durability and a focus more on ease of application. The initial water behaviour was very impressive but it did slip off a lot quicker than I was expecting. I'll give it a go on its own again and then maybe as a topper and see what kind of results I get

Hi Heather, another great turnaround, Do the tar remover products damage say supaguard or ceramic coatings, i have autosmart tardis which is solvent just wondered if you knew ?
@AutoCareHQ
@AutoCareHQ Жыл бұрын
Thanks Daniel! It could possibly degrade the Supaguard but should be fine with a ceramic coating. It’s always worth testing it on a small section but I’ve not had any issues with solvent based tar removers affecting a ceramic coating in the past 😊

Great thanks for the reply also wondered how you don’t get soaked through in trainers, i did my van last week in mind and had trench foot by the time i’d finished and my work pants were soaked too

I usually manage to keep my trainers dry for most of the wash but by the end they do get a bit damp! I’ve got some waterproof boots I use sometimes in winter but my trainers are a bit more comfy 😂

Hi Heather, another great detailing video! Just wanna ask if you still pre-treat a coated car with an APC?
@AutoCareHQ
@AutoCareHQ Жыл бұрын
Thank you! A lot of the time I've found a coated car doesn't really need an APC/ citrus and a snow foam will shift the grime on its own, but if it's been a while since the last wash then I'll use a weak dilution of citrus just on the lower sections

As you are washing the car on gravel and not on a solid floor connected to a sewer, how good is the biodegradability of the cleaning agents? Are they safe for the environment or do you take any precautions?

I see You holding the brush "like a pen". Nothing wrong with that but I experienced fatigue in the hand when facing those modern large front intakes with thousands of crevices that take ages to clean. Damn Audis and Mazdas ... Holding the brush with four fingers (including the ring finger) spreads the cleaning load more evenly on the hand and makes it less tiring. Other than that: again a very nicely made and edited video - as always!

Hi Heather, My wife has MINI SE in the same colour so took an interest in your video when I viewed it this morning. She normally helps me wash her own car but hates the drying process part, seeing the BLO R/S prompted a few comments and questions. Is this product worth the £160 outlay and could it be used to dry the whole car rather than using a towel? I would appreciate your opinion before committing to purchase Merry Christmas 🎄
@AutoCareHQ
@AutoCareHQ Жыл бұрын
Merry Christmas Steve :) It can definitely be used to dry the whole car but it will add time and in all honestly does feel more tedious than using a towel. The main reason to use it on the whole car is to reduce the risk of any swirls/ marring during the drying process. I've done this review on the dryer which hopefully should answer some questions! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnOpnJeAg89sm6s

Wouldn't the rain affect the curing process of the ceramic coating?
@AutoCareHQ
@AutoCareHQ Жыл бұрын
It was a spray sealant rather than a full blown ceramic coating so it shouldn’t really cause a problem. On the trim I towel dried it after it stopped raining to make sure that coating wasn’t affected but by that point it had already been on there for an hour so it didn’t cause any problems as it had chance to soak in
